    perf/core: Drop PERF_EVENT_TXN · 8f3e5684
    Sukadev Bhattiprolu 提交于
    We currently use PERF_EVENT_TXN flag to determine if we are in the middle
    of a transaction. If in a transaction, we defer the schedulability checks
    from pmu->add() operation to the pmu->commit() operation.
    
    Now that we have "transaction types" (PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD, PERF_PMU_TXN_READ)
    we can use the type to determine if we are in a transaction and drop the
    PERF_EVENT_TXN flag.
    
    When PERF_EVENT_TXN is dropped, the cpuhw->group_flag on some architectures
    becomes unused, so drop that field as well.
    
    This is an extension of the Powerpc patch from Peter Zijlstra to s390,
    Sparc and x86 architectures.
